Well it took a while but I have finally finished my grand-daughters cot, it has been stripped of all the old paint sanded and repainted. (Please note – repainted in a non gender specific colour so it won’t need repainting for a while).
This cot was bought in February 1935 by my Grandad whilst my Grandmother was in hospital giving birth to my Mum. It has over the last 75 years been used for Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, me and my 4 brothers and sisters, my nieces and nephews, my four children and now Lily-Jane is at this moment happily fast asleep in it.
In my book, that’s pretty good value for my Grandad’s money!
